Richmond Hill is a large, diverse neighborhood in south Queens. It's history is defined by transportation routes. It's easy to see three zones in the current neighborhood:

• North Richmond Hill is the most prosperous part, solidly middle class, with a smattering of beautiful Victorian-style homes
• The central area is more densely populated, and home to one of the largest Sikh communities outside of India.
• South Richmond Hill is more working class, and dominated by Indo-Guyanese and Trinidadian immigrant community.
